Winter Storm in Tavaputs Plateau, Utah

Winter Storm February 6, 2024 – February 7, 2024 · Tavaputs Plateau, Utah

What the National Weather Service wrote

About 24 inches of snow fell at East Willow Creek. Winds generally gusted in the 35 to 45 mph range with a peak gust of 46 mph at Upper P.R. Canyon RAWS.

The wider storm

Abundant moisture due to a significant Atmospheric River moved through the Four Corners into eastern Utah and southwest Colorado, favoring heavy snowfall for the southern slopes across the eastern Utah mountains and mountains of southwest and west-central Colorado as well as very strong winds above 11,000 feet. Warm air ahead of this system limited snow accumulations for the lower elevations. The northern and central mountains also received moderate snow in the colder northwest flow portion of the event but not as much snow as the southern mountains.
